Indonesia’s Economy During Ramadan
People wait to break their fast at a food court in Jakarta, Indonesia, on March 14, 2026. Statistics Indonesia (BPS) projects that economic activity in Indonesia increases significantly during the holy month of Ramadan, driven by preparations for suhoor and iftar, charitable traditions, and travel planning ahead of Eid al-Fitr, with activity rising by up to 40 percent compared to regular days.
